Commit Message Format

Each commit message embodies a:
1. category (feat, fix, docs, ...).
2. summary - provide a succinct description of the change.

Template

Structure of the commit message:

Category	Summary
feat	Add a new feature
fix	A bug fix
docs	Documentation only changes
style	Markup, white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons... no code change
refactor	A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
perf	A code change that improves performance
test	Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
chore	Update build scripts, package manager configs, etc; no production code change

Summary Format

The summary consists of a concise description of the changes made:

use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes"
ensure first letter is not capitalized
avoid dot (.) at the end of the summary
recommended: limit to 50 characters
